Craving is part of life, at some level essential for survival. There is a continuum of craving for substances (drugs, drink, food) and experiences (work, gambling, sex) that at the extreme can lead to unhealthy behavior and to addiction. It’s hard for many of us to control these cravings, and the moralistic judgments our society places on people who can’t manage their cravings doesn’t help. We’ll explore some new ideas (and some very old ideas) in controlling cravings. Rev. Matt Alspaugh is the speaker and Susan Miller is the Service Leader.
Lakeside Presbyterian
Are you dead or alive in Christ? That is what Dr. Wayne Cook asks us this Sunday, referring to Philippians 1:19-26.
“When Paul encountered the Risen Christ on the road to Damascus something happened. He died. He still looked the same and spoke the same, but there was something completely new inside.
The hatred he had for his enemies was changed to love. Instead of persecuting Christians, he was now a brother. His understanding of God was wholly transformed. He was now reborn as a completely different person.
So in Philippians, Paul is now saying that it doesn’t matter if he is alive or dead. In either case he is with Christ.” Dr. Cook will discuss how this applies to us.
Coffee & light refreshments are back, in the courtyard immediately after the service. Communion is offered each Sunday and family and friends are returning to in-person services. Join us and bring a friend Sunday, July 11, 9:30 a.m.
The despensa program continues, assisting Lakeside families in need on a weekly basis. Children’s education is back in operation, and the church is again available for small group meetings and Bible study. Please schedule through the office.
If you’re not yet comfortable attending a live service, please know we are working diligently to work out the wrinkles for live streaming via Facebook. The service will also be available on our website Monday afternoon.

Abundant Life Church
How does God treat His most cherished servants? You may think that the closer you are to God, the more likely you are to get what you want, but the reality is that God´s plans impact His servants in ways that they are not always prepared. Our love for Jesus does not give us special rights, but rather means that we are willing to suffer more for him. With that as the rule, how would you qualify your life and love for the Lord? Come Sunday, July 11, prepared to have your love grow for God.
English Sunday service is at 10 a.m., also at abundantlifechapala.com. Bible study is Wednesdays at 3 p.m. in English. Carretera Chapala-Joco 140 in San Antonio Tlayacapan, a block from Super Lake market.
